Malignant tumor incidence and mortality in Daishan county,Zhoushan,Zhejiang Province from 2014 to 2019 / 肿瘤

Objective:To provide scientific basis for prevention and control measures of island regions through analyzing the characteristics of malignant tumor incidence and mortality in eastern island areas of China and comparing the data with the national cancer mortality data in the same period. Methods:Using the incidence and mortality data of malignant tumor in Daishan county,Zhoushan collected by the Daishan Center for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC)from 2014 to 2019,which was stratified by gender,the crude incidence rates(CIR)and crude mortality rates(CMR)were calculated,and the top 10 malignant tumors with the highest incidence or mortality rates were then ranked.The Segi's world standard population was used to calculate the age-standardized incidence(ASIR)and age-standardized mortality rate(ASMR).The local data were compared with the national cancer mortality data from 2014 to 2019,and Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences between these two sets of data using the SPSS software.The difference was considered statistically significant when P<0.05. Results:There was a total of 7 305 incidence cases of malignant tumors in Daishan county,Zhoushan from 2014 to 2019.The CIR was 662.39/105 and the ASIR was 306.81/105.Notably,the CIR was the highest in the age group of 75-79 years old.The top 5 malignant tumors with the highest incidence rates were lung cancer(27.15％),gastric cancer(12.76％),liver cancer(10.95％),colorectal cancer(6.92％)and breast cancer(5.42％),whose ASIR were 75.09/105,32.06/105,31.01/105,17.81/105 and 18.36/105,respectively.There was a total of 3 412 mortality cases of malignant tumors in Daishan county,Zhoushan from 2014 to 2019.The CMR was 309.39/105 and the ASMR was 122.73/105.Notably,the CMR was the highest in the age group of 80-85 years old.The top 5 malignant tumors with the highest mortality rates were lung cancer(24.94％),liver cancer(18.64％),gastric cancer(17.00％),colorectal cancer(7.56％)and esophageal cancer(5.72％),whose ASMR were 29.65/105,24.97/105,19.01/105,8.75/105 and 6.60/105,respectively.The total ASMR of malignant tumors in Daishan county,Zhoushan was higher than national total ASMR from 2014 to 2019(100.34/105)(P<0.001).Specifically,the ASMR of gastric cancer,lung cancer and colorectal cancer in Daishan county were significantly higher than national levels(gastric cancer:12.46/105;liver cancer:16.45/105;colorectal cancer:6.63/105)(P<0.01),whereas no significant difference in the ASMR of lung cancer and esophageal cancer between Daishan county and the whole nation(lung cancer:28.06/105;esophageal cancer:7.61/105)was observed. Conclusion:Lung cancer,gastric cancer,liver cancer and colorectal cancer were malignant tumors with higher incidence and mortality rates in Daishan county,Zhoushan from 2014 to 2019.Particularly,the ASMR of gastric cancer,liver cancer and colorectal cancer were significantly higher than the national levels,and these malignant tumors should be considered as the major focus of cancer prevention and control.

Application of a new type of simulated manikin based on the biomechanical characteristics of the simulated thoracic cavity in the teaching and training of cardiopulmonary resuscitation / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To simulate the biomechanical characteristics of the real human thoracic cavity with a multi-spring group variable damping structure, and to design a new cardiopulmonary resuscitation training manikin based on the simulated thoracic biomechanical characteristics combined with the original electronic feedback system, and to test its application effect in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) teaching.Methods:A total of 60 undergraduate students majoring in five-year clinical medicine of Batch 2019 in Naval Medical University were selected as the research objects and were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group, with 30 students in each group. The control group used the traditional manikin for CPR training, and the experimental group used the new type of manikin for CPR training based on the control group. After the training, the two groups of personnel were assessed for single skill. The single skill was mainly manual CPR operations, including artificial respiration and chest compressions. The theory and skill operation assessment of CPR and satisfaction for teaching method in the two groups were compared. SPSS 23.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:The students in the experimental group scored (54.33±3.09) points in the single skill operation assessment, which were significantly better than that of the students in the control group [(52.33±3.08) points], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The follow-up questionnaire showed that the students in the experimental group had a better evaluation of the teaching and training effect of the new type of manikin. Conclusion:Compared with the traditional manikin, the new CPR manikin can simulate the CPR emergency scene of the real human body, which can effectively improve the CPR teaching effect of standardized training for medical students, and help the standardization, normalization, and popularization of CPR technology in China.

Risk factors analysis and a new risk scoring system predicting hepatocarcinogenesis for chronic genotype C HBV infected patients / 中华流行病学杂志

Objective: To investigate the effects of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotype and mutations on the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to establish a new qualified HCC risk scores. Methods: A cohort study enrolling patients with chronic HBV infection was conducted. HBV genotypes were identified by nested multiplex PCR. HBV mutations in the basic core promoter region and PreS region were sequenced after PCR amplification. Scores on risk factors were set based on nomogram. Results: Totally, 1 525 patients were followed-up in this research. A total of 1 110 patients infected with genotype C were followed-up for 8.52 (Q(R): 5.36-11.68) years on average, of whom the incidence of HCC was 11.93/1 000 person-years. In genotype C HBV infected patients, male gender, aged 40 years and over, and four DNA mutations (T1674CG, A1762T/G1764A, A3120T, and A2962G) can increase the risk of HCC (P<0.05); interferon therapy can reduce the risk of HCC (P<0.05). A new HCC predicting model was established according to the results. After validation, the predicted disease-free survival rate was consistent with the real one. Conclusions: Hepatitis B virus genotypes and mutations were closely associated with HCC. The new risk scoring system can well predict HCC occurrence in genotype C HBV infected patients.
